3 FIREFIGHTER TRAINING THAT COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE LIVE FIREFIGHTER TRAINING SOLUTIONS 03 The best way to learn how to fight a fire is by fighting real fires. However, with today s improved fire prevention methods and public education, there are fewer fires to fight which means less opportunity for real-life experiences. At Dräger, we offer an unmatched range of operations equipment, personal protective equipment (PPE), and proven firefighter training systems. Our Class A live fire training units, gas-fueled training systems, and SCBA mazes enable you to teach skills that are essential to many NFPA standards, including 1001 firefighter qualifications in a safe and repeatable environment. As a result, you can continually build the abilities and confidence of firefighters. D D D

4 04 CLASS A SWEDE SURVIVAL SYSTEM Class A Dräger Swede Survival: Real Smoke, Real Heat, Real Fire OUR WOOD-FUELED SWEDE SURVIVAL SYSTEMS PROVIDE BOTH EQUIPMENT AND TRAINING, ENABLING YOU TO: Develop a progressive live firefighter training curriculum This system enables firefighters to incrementally develop knowledge of fire behavior and skills for fire control/ suppression as they advance through six available skill centers Phase 1 though Phase 6. Minimize risk These systems combine purpose-built training units with Dräger-certified instructional programs that train the trainers on the safe operation of the unit including proper fuel loading, ignition, ventilation control, and delivery of the training. Replicate real-world scenarios This comprehensive solution enables you to deliver extremely realistic, hands-on training. By selecting one or more Phases, you can address most of the requisite skills for structural firefighting as per NFPA 1001-Standard for Fire Fighter Professional Qualifications and NFPA 1403-Standard on Live Fire Training Evolutions. Control training costs Compared to the high cost of architectural concrete or steel burn buildings, Dräger Swede Survival systems are extremely cost effective. Training units can be placed almost anywhere, can be moved from one location to another, and require minimal maintenance. D UNMATCHED TRAINING All live fire training is inherently dangerous. That s why Dräger is committed to developing and offering the most comprehensive training programs in North America. Dräger Swede Survival systems and Drägercertified instructional training programs have been designed and delivered in accordance with training methods developed by the Swedish Rescue Services Agency through the Swedish Rescue Training Center (SRTC).

5 The system is flexible and realistic. Battalion Chief Dan Miller, Omaha Fire Department D GENUINE SWEDE SURVIVAL SYSTEM After two Swedish firefighters lost their lives to flashover in 1986, the Swedish government asked the country s Rescue Service to develop a full burn behavior program that included flashover training. The intent of the program was to help firefighters recognize extreme fire behavior and avoid injuries and death. Dräger brought this live fire training program to North America in 1990 and has delivered more than 300 systems in the US and Canada to fire departments, fire academies, airports, military agencies, and more.

6 06 CLASS A SWEDE SURVIVAL SYSTEM PHASES 1, 2 & 2+ Dräger Swede Survival Systems Today s building materials and furnishings produce fires that burn faster and hotter than ever before. In fact, modern homes reach flashover eight times faster than homes did 50 years ago*. PHASE 1: BURN BEHAVIOR AND FLASHOVER OBSERVATION Demonstrates fire behavior, progression, flashover indicators, and prevention techniques In a safe and controlled setting 3 feet below the burn chamber, trainees closely observe typical fire behavior in a roomand-contents fire. They witness ignition, the phases of fire development, and the signs that lead to a flashover including heavy smoke, heat, thermal layering, and rollover. Trainees can also witness the impact of ventilation and learn about ventilation-limited and fuel-limited fires. By experiencing these conditions, trainees learn to recognize warning signs and develop nozzle skills that can delay flashover and permit a rapid escape from this dangerous phenomenon. D D * UL. Modern Residential Fires. Retrieved August 14, 2014 from

7 D PHASE 2: INTERIOR ATTACK Expands on fire behavior lessons from Phase 1 and progresses to attacking the fire In a 40-foot container, training now takes place on the same level as the fire. Trainees enter the unit, identify the level of fire development, and use proper nozzle techniques to control the fire. If trainees recognize the development of flashover, they must use the nozzle techniques to delay the onset of flashover and retreat from the unit. D Instructors maintain control of the scenario through proper operation of the ventilation chimney. The Phase 2 can also be used to address other requisite skills required in a typical single-story building fire. PHASE 2+: ADVANCED ATTACK (MOBILE) D Combines the training of Phase 2 with the benefits of a multipurpose skill facility You can conduct numerous dynamic scenarios in this 48-foot mobile unit by using the unit s additional training devices in conjunction with its live fire capability. There s a moveable wall system to change the approach path and for search and rescue; a fold-up roof railing with second-story window frame for laddering, bailout, and rescue; a confined space entry hatch through the roof; a vertical ventilation prop; and firststory windows and doors for mechanical, horizontal ventilation.

8 08 CLASS A SWEDE SURVIVAL SYSTEM PHASES 3 & 4 Dräger Swede Survival Systems PHASE 3: BACKDRAFT Demonstrates the warning signs of backdraft and the intensity of an explosion If warning signs go unnoticed, a firefighter can cause a backdraft by opening a door or breaking a window to reach a compartment fire. For exterior observation only, the Phase 3 is a laboratory that gives trainees the opportunity to learn about the conditions that can cause and occur during a backdraft condition. The fire in the ventilation-limited compartment produces a significant amount of smoke and fire gases, which are heated beyond ignition temperature. When the compartment door is opened and oxygen is introduced, a large explosion results from the rapid combustion of the gases. PHASE 4: GARAGE Simulates an entry room with heat and smoke leading to a large live fire room, providing additional fire attack scenarios This trainer is configured with two 40-foot containers side-byside and a 20-foot container installed perpendicularly at the entry point of the burn chamber. This layout forms a hallway entry into a double-wide burn room for more advanced and dynamic scenarios. The additional width lets you train two nozzle teams entering from opposite sides of the structure. D D

9 SWEDE SURVIVAL SYSTEM PHASES 5 & 6 CLASS A 09 PHASE 5: MULTI-STORY, MULTI-FIRE Simulates a multi-story, single-family dwelling structure fire This flexible unit leverages the lessons learned from Phases 1 4: size up, breach, ventilate, enter, search and rescue, attack, and overhaul. It enables fire attack at grade, below grade, and above grade, covering applicable NFPA 1001 requirements at a fraction of the cost of similar architectural burn buildings. D D The Phase 5 is the ideal complement to other Phases, but is also a cost-effective standalone training facility. Training in Sweden at the Swedish Rescue Training Center is included with this system. PHASE 6: CENTER HALLWAY Simulates a hotel or apartment building fire With a 70-foot central hallway and 20-foot containers as burn rooms, this system lets you train for fire attack, smoke conditions, search and rescue, and hose handling through the main corridor. The design offers various scenarios due to the length of the central hallway and the number of potential burn rooms. Training in Sweden at the Swedish Rescue Training Center is included with this system.

ST D ARFF SYSTEM Simulates fires on aircraft for airport rescue firefighters Aircraft fires represent a special firefighting challenge. Dräger can build the size and configuration of aircraft to meet your requirements, full size or to scale. Different types of aircraft fuselage sizes or wing configurations can be included in one structure. D Search and rescue efforts can be executed within the fuselage, with or without the use of interior live fire systems. Interior fires can be installed in the cockpit, cargo hold, galley, luggage compartments, or around the seats. Typical exterior fires include large scale fuel spills, turbine engine fires, APU fires, or at the wheels or brakes.

14 D DRÄGER TRAINING GALLERY MAZE SYSTEMS Trains firefighters to understand their equipment, physical, and psychological limitations while using an SCBA Dräger Training Gallery Maze Systems are designed to build the confidence and agility of firefighters while wearing full PPE, including SCBA. Trainees learn air management and discover how far they can go on a limited air supply. By moving through the confined spaces and obstacles of the maze, firefighters become comfortable with the added mental stress of breathing while wearing a mask. You can quickly rescue a trainee in distress by removing sections of the modular system. D You can increase the difficulty of the training by changing crawl paths, adding obstacles, and creating a smoke filled, dark, or hot environment. The maze can also be used for more advanced training, including confined space rescue, self-rescue, entanglement, or RIT training. D Maze
